A file abstraction layer would be great; I think I even already saw a JIRA 
request for that.

To connect SFTP with Commons VFS I created a subclass of SftpSubsystem, 
but it

required lots of copied code - same for Scp. 

(http://vfs-utils.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/vfs-utils/trunk/shell/sshd/src/main/java/org/vfsutils/shell/sshd/VfsSftpSubsystem.java?view=markup)

The FTPServer file abstraction layer can be a source of inspiration. My 
integration of 
VFS with that was much cleaner. I guess a shared Mina file abstraction layer is 
not an option?
